Well, no not really, but he did have the 'dad' attitude down.
In the commentaries for TTT, Fran, Peter and Phillipa joked that one of the reasons they didn't have Elrond's sons in the films is because they'd run out of beautiful New Zealand men they could cast.

Veterans Day Messages from Troops In Iraq, Filmed By Defense Dept., Feature Replica of Twin Towers
After months of studied ambiguity, President Bush finally admitted that Iraq had “nothing” to do with the attack on the World Trade Center. The Defense Department, however, appears determined to perpetuate the myth.
Today, the administration released veterans day messages from troops in Iraq. These “taped messages from the U.S. Defense Department” featured a replica of the twin towers in the background. Here’s a screen shot:

Bush and Blair discuss new policy for Iraq
Transatlantic phone call anticipates top level submissions to influential study group next week
The Observer
Tony Blair and beleaguered President George Bush have had a long discussion on how to push forward 'change' in the coalition's policy in Iraq.
In Friday's phone conversation, Blair, who will give evidence to the Bush-appointed Iraq Study Group on Tuesday, insisted on the need to regionalise the peace effort and draw Iran and Syria - which have been accused of supporting insurgents - into any solution.

Well, it wasn't just facial beauty, it was the physical type, and I think Cate did that well. But they needed tall and skinny/lithe, so most of the elf extras were college students. I think in this case shooting in NZ was a drawback, not enough population to draw from.

For college kids? Yup. But actually I dug the music, and the shirts and CDs were just gravy. I played a lot of Limbomaniacs and Blue Hearts, too. Drove them to the top of the alternative charts, actually--NHK (Japanese radio) interviewed my friend because we pretty much were responsible for all the Blue Hearts' airtime in the US and they wanted to know why a Japanese band was "so popular" in Maine.
The local radio announcer, broadcast the local high school's playoff game (my alma mater) said that the football huddle was invented in Muskegon in 1909. I did not know that and I am casting a jaded eye on this information.

Well, it wasn't just facial beauty, it was the physical type, and I think Cate did that well.
Yes she did. And I suppose that the whole point about the elves, especially the most noble among them, was that they had a preternatural beauty that was inherently inhuman. So it's pretty hard to cast humans that live up to that standard on the face of it, and therefore hard to fault Jackson for making compromises there.

chucks a well spoken voice of reason, at least that's what he sounds like but he is what's wrong with the Democratic party. He is republican light and no voice of change. His slimy comments and sucking up to faux spews only undermines the good works of this last election. And for the life of me I cannot understand Reid or his promised appointment to LIEberman. Maybe the senate needs a new democratic leader and maybe schumer and Emanual should get the boot.

I've been wondering about that. Liebermann has been courted by both sides of the aisle.
This promised post might keep him on the Democratic side. Since the Democrats are such a mixed bunch, Pelosi will have to work hard to keep them in line. But Lieberman wandering over to vote with his Republican friends would make it 50/49 and that is too dangerous.

Pigboy, first, sorry about seeming so condescending earlier. I was trying to pull one of those Molly Ivins things.
The answer is, there are 49 Republicans and 49 Democrats in the new Senate, and the two independents, who are going to caucus with the Dems, which gives them control. Sanders is for all practical purposes a Dem, but Lieberman is of course well known to side with the GOP when it really counts (like cloture votes).

Joe is a wanker but he's not completly stupid. He saw the blue wind. There's nothing at all for him by siding with the GOP cause he's loose then the few democrats who voted for him. He also knows he would loose his comity seats the second he votes a different way than Harry Reid. Actually you can almost say that now he will be more predictable than before. He will have to walk the blue line or he's powerless.

PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) -- Two days after losing a bid for a second term, Sen. Lincoln Chafee said he was unsure whether he would remain a Republican.
Chafee lost to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in a race seen as a referendum on President Bush and the GOP. On Thursday, he was asked whether he would stick with the Republican Party or become an independent or Democrat.
"I haven't made any decisions. I just haven't even thought about where my place is," Chafee said at a news conference. When pressed on whether his comments indicated he might leave the GOP, he replied: "That's fair."
Chafee, 53, is a lifelong Republican who has represented Rhode Island for seven years. His father held the same seat for 23 years before that.
He is the most liberal Republican in the Senate and was the sole Senate Republican to vote against the war in Iraq. But that was not enough to prevail against Whitehouse, who shared many of Chafee's views but was a Democrat in a heavily Democratic state.

Cool. The other parties have managed to make a right mess of things.

He'd be an idiot to piss of Harry now, when he'll be completely irrelevant in two years.

Precisely. We have to deal with Holy Joe for two more years and then we can gleefully pitch him over the side. At that point, it may wll be time to replace Reid as well, but until then, I'd say he's as good a leader as any.

the other thing to remember about Joe is that, in 2000, he won re-election (lucky guy) with- what, 65-70%?

But auggy is his own true love. and we're not quite sure where augs falls on the gender spectrum.

Steve--since all the girls love you, it should work out just fine.
Dawkins says evolution is a theory of nonrandom selection of randomly varying genetic codes.
brick: the Mormons' dogma about North American indians being descended from a lost tribe of Israel is coming up against molecular genealogy. You make statements about God loving the world, loving your neighbor s yourself, like that, that's one thing, but you make dinosaur bones 3000 years old, or say Kennewick Man's grandmother got off a boat from the Fertile Crescent, well, you might just get embarrassed...
Alec is very good as Saddam "Borat has more hits than me"!

Now SNL is showing a winger's idea of irony, Baldwin as Saddam.
Alls I know, is that we just took the House in an ass-whuppin, and the Senate in a horse race.
Neither one was supposed to happen according to Karl Rove.
Flory--I don't think I want to explore auggy's gender issues...I'm not easily grossed out, but a girl has to draw the line somewhere.
K, a quick lesson for me because I tangled up Pelosi of the House and Reid of the Senate.

Well, some of them, like Sessions and Roberts, are probably irredeemable. Some others, Like Collins, Smith, Sununu, and Coleman, might feel a lot of pressure to break ranks. If Little George sticks to his guns for the next two years, the Republican party is going t be pretty small.

Dawkins says evolution is a theory of nonrandom selection of randomly varying genetic codes.
brick
It is the natural consequence of selective environmental pressure applied to a self-perpetuating stochastic process over deep time.
In the brodaer perspective, of course, the whole universe is a random process. It is the enthalpy of the sun that drives self-organizing behavior in the random soup of molecules on planet Earth and locally reduces the entropy level.

I submit that this is the most incredibly geeky comment on any blog ever.
1. The poster is bragging about how a Saturday Night Live sketch has cleverly satirized his political opposition.
2. The poster uses the abbreviation "SNL" in manner of hip individual.
3. The poster is using "Tore new one" expression in manner of tough person of stature of Chuck Norris or similar.
4. The poster has made up his original sexist term of abuse for the next Speaker of the House of Representatives. He seems to hope that this term of abuse will catch on and thus earn him a measure of Fame.
5. This person has numerological concept of Minister Farrakhan or similar.
6. Poster is acting malevolently in textual manner in Internet Blog Comments Section on Friday night.
The evidence, frankly, is overwhelming.

The Japanses General Staff and the German General Staff knew that once the United States became an enemy combatant, it was all over.
I donno about the German General Staff, but Admiral Yamamoto was certainly convinced that if Japan couldn't beat the US in the first six months then Japan was toast.

Hmmm, movie showed today about the Japanese attacks on Attu.
And, Alaska was a territory back then too. But.....
Part of the theme was "last time an occupying force landed on the US since 1812.
So...
In addition to attacking American ships (which is, as we know, tantamount to attacking the country) and invading a ton of American holdings (which is, as we know, tantamount to attacking the country) the Japanese did, in fact, attack the mainland of the United States. At least twice. Ineptly, true, but they were attacks. Once with a sub shooting at California, and once with balloons intended to start forest fires. There may be better examples, but it's getting late between my ears...

One December back in the 90's I visited an old friend in Montreal, and he kept his house at 15C. (60F)
Even with a t-shirt, shirt, and sweater and long pants on, after several hours of heat loss, I started shivering so violently that I had to put on an outside coat. After some choice words in French, he gave in an put it up to 66F, which was tolerable with the sweater. My feet never did get warm on that trip. The crazy part of all this was that it was cheap - Hydro Quebec power.
cats can be so great. I like tigers. Mine, Tigger was about the coolest ever. Looked quite a bit like Jeffraham's Curly. Awesome, awesome cat, very intelligent, smarter than many Republicans, combined. Lord I miss that cat.

They would dock at the Hudson piers from time to time. Phenomenally big boats. Some of them are too big even for there. They might somehow make it up the Hudson if it were specially dredged, but the piers are not sized for the largest.

Submarine construction is definitely East Coast. Electric Boat in Connecticut, or Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia. The contracts go nowhere else.

Issac Asimov of one of the best scifi writers, although I base that on mostly his earlier short stories. The later more voluminous stuff I never really got into. Ray Bradbury is another singular scifi guy. There's a hndful of them. Heinlein is another, and Vonnegut.

The books are: Foundation [1951], Foundation and Empire [1952], Second Foundation [1953], Foundation's Edge [1982], Foundation and Earth [1986], Prelude to Foundation [1988 ], Forward the Foundation [1993]
Certainly read the first one--it's quick and simple. It's good stuff for the imagination. As you can see, Asimov took the thing a long way, as the story of what went on before and after got more complex. There were tie-ins to his robot novels and books referred to as the "Empire" series.

O'Brian writes as if he has actually controlled ships in the early 1800s, and describes them in great detail. You get the sense of the ship sitting in the water, how she handles with certain types of guns or sails, different weights of cargo, how she shifts in the wind with different sails up or down...
It's like someone who tells you about how they drove their manual stick shift car to San Diego in heavy traffic...with the cops looking for him.

I've been an advocate of them for 4 years.
And what did Alaska do? Said "as long as one candidate get's 45% of the total vote"....
Bullshit.
Yep.
I'm guessing I'm north of you, but still in Texas.
Bridges to Nowhere is still there, and we need the National office to help take him down. Netroots would be so much nicer though.

It's fine, no snap intended, just meant to point out some things about why wage and health insurance makes us stonger and is therefore a bargain, not a "cost". Still, I HAVE a toasteroven and someplace to plug it in, tonight anyway, which is more than millions of other Americans. The whole thing is beyond the pale.

Rapid funding for development and rollout of the spectrum of clean sustainable renewable independent American energy is one of the very
first things I believe we must all focus on, and I have advocated it and worked in support of it for 30 years.
The sources and mechanisms from which we derive our energy is one of the prime root causes of almost everything else.

And if Cosmo is a big deal with Vicki, then fine, she needs the time to get over that little guy.
I would.
Barry - I'm just worried that she gets together with a stranger off the internets then is not heard from again. Just being silly is all.
good morning.
not silly ql--a valid concern.
is there any way someone could check on her?
i get the sense that Vicki is a very trusting soul.
i hope everything is ok.
We should see if Nim comes around this morning. I believe DWD also has her phone number. Vicki's a big girl with lots of support, so I'm sure I'm just getting into nervous Nellie territory.

You are suave, sophisticated, smart, witty, and probably gorgeous. If I hadn't hooked up with Mr. QL 36 years ago I'd make a beeline to Alaska and you wouldn't get out of my clutches.

wink, wink, nudge, nudge

how are you on this fine sunday?
I'll go away now, the Mrilyn Cadel Cat Carol is getting to me,

I'm just great, how about you?
Hi Mimi:
How's Switzerland?
i'd be a helluva lot better if i didn't have to leave for work soon. 
hi QL!
I have mixed feelings about Switzerland. The people I work with are very nice, but I am the only woman in the office. It seems there aren't too many women in IT in Switzerland, only about 5%. In Canada, it's about 50%. The USA must be the same.
They have really big burly security guard at the supermarkets and I'm not used to that. People are not particularly nice, not like in Bavaria.
And everything is so damned expensive. Milk is .50 Euros a litre in Europe. Here, it's like 2.50 Francs. (with the exchange rate, it should be about .60 Francs)
It's nice to have a lake downtown with swans and everything, but it will take some getting used to.
oh, and the dirty old men are following me around Zurich. I seem to be a hit with them.
When we lived in Milano, we would make quick trips into Lugano, and then we drove around some. It is beautiful, but I'm not sure I'd like to live there. I got the feeling the entire country was like small town America. Takes awhile for them to warm up to strangers.
the good thing about Zurich are the movies. Movies from all over the world in their original languages with subtitles. You can see the movies that they write about that are in film festivals and do very well but are never available in the USA or Canada. and there are lots of theatres around.
later batses!
I got the same thing from the Bavarians. Some of them seemed cold, but once you started to talk to them, they would be very nice and wouldn't shut up.
I'm not so sure the Swiss are like that, although the guys I work with are.
It's nice to get Italian programming on tv here. Maybe I can pick up some Italian (words, not guys)
Rumor had it that Italian guys were great lovers with their mistresses, not so much with the mother of their children. Apparently they would confuse them with their own moms.
Her eyes, it sucks to have to work on Sunday.

I haven't left this blog in over a month sitting here day after day. One of my eyeballs just popped out of my head and is hanging on my cheek by a vein.
I got an e-mail from Russ Feingold. He officially sez he ain't running in 2008.
Remember the lunatic who posted here about a space tourism program? People could use their frequent flier miles to take a vacation orbiting around the earth.
He was a serious fellow armed with diagrams, business plans and strange drawings.

I am sad about that and hope that he
soon replaces Harry Reid

Well, one more scenario for '08 is no longer operative. Feingold has decided to stay out of the presidential contest this time around.
I hope Gore runs. He can win.
When Nancy Pelosi becomes Speaker of the House, and then, by two unforseen events, becomes president, Hillary will be annoyed.

Also, when they lose your luggage in outer space, it's a bitch to get it back.
The guys on the ISS open up their next supply rocket . . . "Who's this Homer A. Jones guy? And why is he sending us his bad overnight bag?"
Luggage lost in space, at least you could find it with a sufficiently powerful telescope.
But luggage lost in Atlanta airport? Now THAT'S a mystery. The Ark of the Covenant is a snap compared to trying to track down a single American Tourister that missed a Delta connection in Atlanta.
(i'm still expecting it to come home about 2048 with lots of amazing stories to tell to my tombstone.)
-
mmm... any signs of life?
According to the NY Times, 30% more luggage has been lost over the last year. The problem is understaffing. And the fact that the airport workers are not trained and are paid minimum wage.
It was in the NY Times, so it has to be true.
geb:drf
I mean, if we keep the congress, it doesn't matter to me as much who gets the presidency as long as it's a dem. I would just prefer someone who is a little more aligned with my views is all.
Carnival started in Zurich yesterday.
Huh, didn't swee that one coming. Guess i have unrrealized prejudices, but i would have thought that Switzerland would have been de-Carnivaled back during John Calvin's time.

I would link to the NY Times article but I'm too lazy. The article ended with an upbeat vingette. A young woman who has to travel on business takes "a stoic approach" to lost baggage. She's all que sera, sera about it. "I just went to my business meeting in jeans."
What a delightful young woman. The NYT always seems to find a spunky young woman with and MBA, a feisty grandma, or a Pakistani cab driver to leave us with a smile on our faces.

reports from Katmandu note that indeed the ancient construct that has been seasonally investigated by a team of global scientists and mountain climbing technicians high on the summit of Mt Ararat apparently is Noah's Ark of pre-biblical mythology, but curiously enough there's no explaination for the surprising number of modern luggage and single socks found in it's hold.
I'm a little sad Mr. Feingold has announced he isn't running as well. It would have been nice to have someone with his fire raising the important issues during the primary season whether he could win or not.
I think the more people running, the more views expressed, the more issues raised, the better for all of us.
Spunky MBA business traveller and NY Times: Shhh. Shut up. Don't let the airlines hear about this "stoic approach." It will give them ideas.

'Formula' sells well, and it's so simple to write once you have the basic template down. Some days i think a lot of 'conspiracy' is just the good-ol' capitalist quest to maximize gains by minimizing effort - such as the printing of White House/GOP boilerplate as 'the story', simply because getting the blastfax at 0900 and inserting it into a Word Perfect template means you're out of the office for the day by lunchtime.

Carnival in Zurich is like Carnival in Germany - while the Anglo-Saxon celebrates Armistice Day with solemn ceremonies, the Germans decided to forego the solemnity and go with the antics. So, Carnival starts on November 11th at 11:11. Most people don't even realize that the war had anything to do with it.
food fight is on a roll this morning.
The NY Times is always behind the times. They discovered blogs about a year ago. How did they cover this story? They covered it in the Westchester Style Section. They interviewed an on-the-go mom in Bronxville who started up a blog as a fun project to keep track of her friends' recipes.

Why does Mancy Pelosi always look like a deer caught in the headlights? Every time she is interviewed she is stuttering and off-balance. I'm moving to Canada before this slow motion car wreck finishes unfolding.
For me, the time to be gracious will come in January when the new congress is sworn in. As Tena said yesterday, the memories of being called "traitor", "un-American" and having people threaten to make me leave the country is still way too fresh.

QL - she called and left a brief message here yesterday, late morning. We weren't in, and she wasn't in when we called back. Sounded fine, though. She should be coming over here in the early afternoon for their monthly Scrabble bonanza.

This election was a victory for centrism, not national healthcare, alternative energy and the minimum wage...
From Yahoo
Just days after Democrats took over Congress, Americans embraced their top goals and
President George W. Bush's job approval rating slid to 31 percent, according to a Newsweek poll issued on Saturday.
Huge majorities of those polled said they approved of the legislative priorities cited by Democratic leaders after their party seized control of the Senate and the House of Representatives from Republicans, the magazine said.
The strongest support, 92 percent, was for lowering drug prices for retirees on Medicare by allowing the government to negotiate directly with drug companies. Some three-quarters of respondents said it should be a top priority, according to Newsweek.
Americans also supported raising the federal minimum wage (89 percent), investigating government contracts in Iraq (89 percent) and cutting the interest rate of federal student loans (88 percent).

Universities move to hide work from U.S. eyes
Concerned about the U.S. government's prying eyes, a number of Canadian universities are changing the way their professors and students conduct online research.
Many university libraries subscribe to RefWorks, a popular U.S.-based Internet tool that allows academics and students to create personal accounts and store research information, as well as generate citations and bibliographies.
But the Patriot Act — which grew out of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and which potentially allows U.S. authorities to sweep through databases such as RefWorks — has prompted Canadian postsecondary institutions to abandon the American server for one housed at the University of Toronto.
“There is certainly concern within Canadian university libraries. It's a concern about a foreign country having access to your personal information without good cause,” said William Maes, librarian at Dalhousie University in Halifax. “That's the devious thing of the Patriot Act, they can do this without letting anybody know.”
With RefWorks, professors and students set up personal accounts on the U.S. database and can then save journal titles for their research records. Amid heightened fears about terrorist activities, Canadian university officials worry that if the research is of a sensitive nature, it could be misunderstood.
For example, an academic researching North Korea or nuclear weapons could find the work flagged by the Bush government, university librarians fear. As a result, Dalhousie, Memorial University of Newfoundland and the University of Alberta are among the institutions that have switched to the Canadian server.
The hope is that data on a Canadian server will be protected from the Patriot Act, which gives authorities virtually unlimited investigative powers.
I know it's just a troll, but others say it too. This idea that just anyone can "move to Canada." Yea, I did, but I didn't just presume that they'd take me and move up here as a matter of right. That's a particularly American attitude.

Elton John says religion promotes homophobia
LONDON — Organized religion fuels anti-gay discrimination and other forms of bias, pop star Elton John said in an interview published Saturday.
“I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people,” John said in the Observer newspaper's Music Monthly Magazine. “Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays.”
“But there are so many people I know who are gay and love their religion,” he said. “From my point of view, I would ban religion completely. Organized religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.”
Religious leaders have also failed to do anything about tensions and conflicts around the world, he said.
“Why aren't they having a conclave? Why aren't they coming together?” he asked.
Man, we are so fucked. The democrat congress is gearing up to trample our freedoms and impose their fascism on the country. The fucking brownshirts are salivating. What dark days are in store for America and for liberty.
Despite all the signs to the contrary, he thinks that everyone's wrong. He's seen the evidence.

Back then, the full measure of the man finally snapped into focus for most Americans, sending his poll numbers into the 30s for the first time. The country saw that the president who had spurned a grieving wartime mother camping out in the sweltering heat of Crawford was the same guy who had been unable to recognize the depth of the suffering in New Orleans’s fetid Superdome. This brand of leadership was not the “compassionate conservatism” that had been sold in all those photo ops with African-American schoolchildren.

Landscapers Cause Furor by Shunning Gay Clients
By RALPH BLUMENTHAL
HOUSTON, Nov. 10 — Last month, a local landscaping firm prompted a furor here by telling a gay couple in an e-mail message, “We choose not to work for homosexuals.”
The female dogs are the ones that eat they're own shit.
And Republican men.

Leahy tels Snarly Dick to go fuck himself
The female dogs are the ones that eat they're own shit.
Not only. And depart, troll!
Mccain wants to ratchet up the war in Iraq with more troops, win with honor, then get out.
from lipreader's link:
Dominance behavior: There have been reports of a submissive troll consuming the feces of one or more dominant trolls in the same message board. There are other examples in nature where the submissive members of a group participate in apparently bizarre behaviors. This is being examined in our study.
Reinforcement: Something about eating the feces itself reinforces the behavior. Things such as taste may be a factor in this. It's simply appealing to the troll to eat the feces, so it does so. This is the likely mechanism in interspecific coprophagia such as eating democratic feces.
Feeding behavior: Many republicans feed their trolls only once per day. Some postulate that trolls naturally want to have multiple meals throughout the day, hence they use coprophagia to supplement their feeding schedule and fulfill this need. This is being examined in our study.
slightly modified for this morning, of course.

That Newsweek poll should be a wake up call to every politician. The country is definitively moving left of center. As Gilliard points out, they got a whooping, even in S. Dakota, because they are just wrong on all the issues.
It's simply an instinct to clean up after their puppies. They lick their asses as well.
So says Rosie O'Donnell, veterinary expert.

Hi jack.
top post at TPM, goddess i love larry when his dander is up:
Wednesday's surprising resignation/firing of Don Rumsfeld and the nomination of the CIA chief who served Bush 41, Robert Gates, was a dramatic and emphatic smack in the face of Dick Cheney. While George W. Bush remains stubbornly committed to the present course in Iraq, there should be no doubt that he is no longer willing to be the Charlie McCarthy to Cheney's Edgar Bergen. Cheney's hand is no longer firmly up Bush's ass and Bush is speaking for himself.
This was a stinging rebuke to Cheney, who had brought his mentor, Don Rumsfeld, into the Bush 43 tent over the strenuous objections of the Bush 41 crowd. Cheney and Rumsfeld shared the same world view of the NeoCon crowd, which included a fierce distrust and anger toward the CIA. During the last five years Cheney assisted Rumsfeld's quest to set up a completely independent intelligence operation in the Department of Defense. At least with the DOD intel capability, the Pentagon and the White House could ignore the CIA view
titter.

Greetings
Oh.My.God. CBS's "Sunday Morning" show didn't even mention the Dems taking over Congress. Oh, but they did tell the story of a hapless deer that got its face stuck in a plastic pumpkin a week ago. Yeah, you'll be happy to know it's face is out of said pumpkin. Now if only their head could be out of their...

I had one with Bill Clinton on it a few years ago, but I wanted to hang on to it.
Race hate laws split the cabinet
Brown and Reid clash over whether to toughen legislation following BNP leader's acquittal
The government is facing a major split over race hate laws, with cabinet colleagues divided over whether the legislation should be toughened.
Two cabinet heavyweights - the Chancellor, Gordon Brown, and the Home Secretary, John Reid - differ over how to respond to Friday's acquittal of the British National Party leader, Nick Griffin, and a fellow BNP activist.
The split comes as Brown, Reid and the Tory leader David Cameron all made moves yesterday to boost their credentials over anti-terror measures and law and order ahead of the Queen's Speech on Wednesday. The speech will include sweeping new measures to tackle antisocial behaviour, immigration, reoffending and terrorism.
chidyke,
I'm still pretty convinced that CHeney won't stay without Rumsfeld.

Apprently NPR hasn't heard of Maxine Waters, Charley Rangel, John Conyers, Louise Slaughter and a whole bunch of other folks.
Bush has a problem. He got rid of Rummy. If he gets rid of Cheney too that makes W himself the most hated man in government.
He should do the right thing and name Pelosi President.

MCcain says he'll make a final decision about a presidential bid in january.
McCain gonna start in with his rendition of a 'noble cause'? ... he's acquiesing to the fraud of the Medicaid criminality because his '08' electorial study group told him to "try new things" such as not kissing prezitards ass. oh and as far as winning with honor ...McCain has no honor ... at this point even the outside notion of a McCain presidency is even more backward than when they announced in '99' that brocolli breath was gonna finance his boy to run for preznit ( what a long nightmare it has been
someone hurry up and phone in McCain manchurian candidate's directive to self-destruct for the good of the country
Lieberman denies he ever criticized iraq war critics.
Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" is one of the most evocative songs in recent years. You can hear and feel the pain and regret in every note.
